Default What carbon parts do you want that aren't out there?

I am researching some things to start a business making carbon fiber parts. I would like some help on chossing what parts you would want to see built for your car that aren't already out there and how much you would reasonably pay. I am hoping to offer something better than what is out there now. Anyway let me know some ideas.
Thanks

Hmm rear hatches seem to be popular. Would you all want to install your own lexan or have lexan or acrylic window installed?

Ha Ha. I have thought of headers but unfortunately I can't think of a resin system that could stand up to 800-900 deg. Maybe someday. I would consider intake manifolds similar to JUN. How much would you pay if I could build one that made power?
